Geology
Coriol is tidally locked with its planet, and the planet is tidally locked with its sun. This means that both moon and planet have a permanent bright and dark side. Coriol has two contients. Its oceans, which cover most of the moon, are capped by thick algae mats.

Settlements and districts

 * Port Coriol, on the bright side, is the bustling main docking site and home to the markets.
 * Tessara Cliffs is a wealthy district on Coriol's dark side, home to well-to-do ship dealers and fuel merchants.
 * Kukkesh is the dark side's Aandrisk district.
 * Flatrock Bay, colloquially known as The Bruise, is a slum-like area on the dark side.
 * Sixtop is the dark side's modder district. Pepper and Blue live here.

The Undersea
The Undersea Transit Line, commonly referred to as "the Undersea", connects Coriol's two continents. It was designed by Sianats. The journey under the ocean to Sixtop takes a little over an hour.
